The 1st- 4th grade Poppy Drawing Poster Contest, sponsored by the American Legion Auxiliary of Atwater, is a meaningful opportunity for students to honor veterans through art. Participants create posters featuring the red poppy—a symbol of remembrance and sacrifice—to show appreciation for those who have served our country. This activity encourages creativity while helping students learn the importance of patriotism, respect, and gratitude.
Congratulations to our winners!

Who was an ACGC teacher who made an impact on you and how?
“I would say the teacher that had the greatest impact on me was Mrs. Johnson. I could say it may be because of how I knew every day in her class would be fun and entertaining with a deep conversation among the class about our homework or everyday things, usually correlating to what we were learning in class. I would say she has had a greater impact on just being a great teacher, she has always been motivational, supportive, and has always been there to listen to me through my difficulties in class or just life. Mrs. Johnson has had the greatest impact on me as a person and student.”
